[bc-gnso] FNOI - NTIA - IANA Contract

[Marilyn Cade]

Just so we all on the same page of understanding this critically important public notice, I will add this to the BC agenda for Singapore. 

It is not a gTLD/GNSO policy issue but has significant implications for ICANN in governance/success,  thus  the officers will  join me in assessing how best to address this issue, inform BC members broadly to help understand implications, including geo political issues, and how ICANN can best pursue its interest in retaining the IANA. 


It is both a technical and geo political issue. We will work to give the BC members facts, perspectives and dialogue. Whether the BC drafts comments is a separate issue and I am cautious on that front, but given governance issues, the BC will have a discussion in Singapore and thereafter, shortly after Singapore. 

If members want to discuss it bfly tomorrow on our call, raise it under AOB.

Mike,
 
I think that language is rather clear and unambiguous, thus not much need for speculation. 
 
Best regards,
 
Michael

There will no doubt be speculation as to whether the following language puts a new hurdle in the new gTLD process:

 

As such, the Draft SOW includes, in paragraph C.2.2.1.3.2, a requirement that delegation requests for new gTLDs include documentation demonstrating how the string proposed reflects consensus among relevant stakeholders and is supportive of the global public interest.
